Excellent post.
There are a lot of things that line up for us that point that this could be the lone feel good moment of the season. We BY FAR play our best Basketball in Gampel. Vital BY FAR is a different player in Gampel. Larrier got to get one game under his belt before Cincinnati and didnt look utterly horrible doing it. So at least he is not coming back cold. Jalen has been in a semi funk the last couple, but usually doesnt do that for extended stretches. Anderson has stepped up above the putrid level line. And Carlton is so much better now.
Cincinnati is a much much much better team. But I think it's possible to steal one. Because this is the only one we could steal. Simply because of Gampel. We are horrible on the road.
Also. Cincinnati is not going to go undefeated this season. They will throw a clunker at some point. they are really good but not THAT good. Even with all our issues, we are still UConn it would not be shocking for anyone nationally to see UConn knock off Cincinnati on a 12 pm game in Gampel.
So I wouldnt be utterly shocked at a win .
But the difference between this team and even other mediocre UConn teams is that I wouldnt be shocked at a 35 point loss either. It absolutely is in play.
It would be nice to grab this one. It will mean NOTHING in the scheme of things concerning the state of this program. We are still screwed. It would just be a nice short term gift for some hardworking (if oft inept) players and some suffering fans.
Great stuff. I am so amped for the game.
